    Hi, it's much better to simply click CTRL+LMB (left mouse button). Also, don't forget that you can use ALT+LMB (drag while holding left mouse button) to select an arbitrary region within your code. Looking forward to VS 2010 launch. I'm preparing a major re-install; it's time to clean up after numerous VS/TFS beta installs.

    Anders, Good call on the mouse info! Z

    Anders, CTRL+LMB requires leaving the keyboard, which is much less efficient.

    This does not work for me. Ctrl+W prompts for a second key to be pressed as if Ctrl+W is only reserved for combination commands. Am I missing something?

    This is a VS2010 ONLY feature!

    mrjimmy and lewis, This works in both VS2008 and VS2010.  It is most likely your keyboard mapping scheme.  I use the default mapping scheme for these posts.  Look for a post soon on how to check you have the correct mapping scheme.   Z

    Thanks for posting this - it will be handy for the upcoming VS2010 release :)

    That explains it. I was on the Visual C# 2005 mapping for some reason. I don't remember ever switching it though. I moved it back to default and it's working fine. Thanks for the heads up!

    Ctrl + w is nice, great post. The ctrl + LMB is a little unnecessary imho. Why hold ctrl when you can just double click for the same result?

    Heh, not necessarily a good point.  I use ctrl+LMB all the time to copy/paste multiple items.  And VS2012 changed this to "folow a hyperlink".   Does anybody know how to change that? Thank you!

    Hey RH As far as I know you can't bind commands to mouse activity in the editor so you may be stuck with the change. Z
